I love Tula Pink!Her book Quilts from The House of
TULA PINK is fantastic.I like how
there are few rules and that a lot of improvisation is incorporated in her
quilts.Also, using of scraps is always
a plus.You can learn from her section
on Tula’s techniques which is very informative and easy to understand
instructions.There are 20 projects to
choose from and I chose STACKS.

This quilt was designed by Tula Pink with the
inspiration of everyone has stacks of books, bills, etc.This quilt finishes out at 72” x 90”.I

Speaking of stacks, here are the stacks of rectangles and pinwheels ready for piecing together.......

After piecing the rectangles and pinwheels to background
pieces, they are sewned into tubes…..

A finished block . . .

I wanted to make a quilt for my husband’s parents’ bed which we got after they passed away.It was their first bedroom suite and was purchased in 1926.I wanted to do a quilt with purples, teals, greens all of her favorites especially purple.Here is a glimpse of the blocks on her bed before assembling into the quilt . . .

I will post the finished quilt when it is finished. You should really check out Tula Pink! She is awesome!
